HIGH PARK THROWDOWN

MFB FORMAT


Calling all Toronto area Bladers! Come join Khel, Blue, and I as we host the first Beyblade tournament in Toronto in years (outside of Anime North haha)! Keep checking back here for more details as they become available!

We're hoping that we can create some sort of Toronto Beyclub, with HPT being the first event. Assuming we have enough attendees, this will be an official WBO tournament, so make sure to get your Blader Passport if you haven't done so already! And of course, we'll do some ranked and free battles in between everything. Oh, and there will be some prizes!

If you're interested, please let us know here so we can start building an attendance list. Hope to see you there!

I just checked my e-mail again ... and for some reason the e-mail I sent off is not in my "Sent Items" folder ... I'll re-send the e-mail to make sure everyone gets it. One of the e-mails did not work, so maybe that is the source of the problem.

Ah, cruel irony! I'll actually be in town, but due to prior plans starting at noon, I will be unable to attend. Best wishes to all who make it.
Jul. 01, 2009  4:31 PM
 
I got both of the e-mails, lol
So is there going to be a definite cutoff time?
I know after war room at AN a bunch of us stayed back after the con and bladed in the hotel basement...

Kei, i think you were there, right?

Ah, well that is good then!
We still haven't decided on a definite starting time yet. This will be determined in the next few days. As for myself, I'll be there until 5 something, since the last train back to my place leaves at 6pm at Union Station.

At BWR? Yes.

If the tourny ends before 5, would we be aloud to stay also just to have battles and all that?

No, you're not allowed to stay at a public park and have Beybattles. Tongue_out_wink

Jul. 03, 2009  2:49 AM

Jul. 03, 2009  4:05 AM

Also guys, sorry to throw a wrench in the machine but I just found out the 18th I have to visit my sister at her camp. Its the family visitation day. It'd be sick if you guys might accommodate me on this, and maybe it would mean Crimson could make it too?
Jul. 03, 2009  3:37 PM
 
hmmm; this will require some discussion. Check your inbox in a bit.
Jul. 03, 2009  3:41 PM
 
I have no problems if you guys move it for him. And yeah, check on crimson see if we can set something up with him to. Of course, thats only if we have enough people for the tourny.

I don't work, so I'm always free, weekends are bad though. I'm out of town a lot.
Jul. 03, 2009  7:01 PM
 
I do work, therefore weekends are the only options...
Jul. 03, 2009  8:21 PM
 
i do have karate on saturday too. Goes till 4. Guess i can skip.
Jul. 03, 2009  9:17 PM
 
Updated the OP with location. Thanks Blue!

We'll think about rescheduling, but for now, assume that nothing has changed.
Jul. 04, 2009  1:19 AM
 
Pretty much going to say there's no way I'll be making it to this event.
I have a LOT of stuff to do in the next 3 weeks.
Even if I wasn't working on the day of the event, I'd probably be too busy with other things to make it.

I have a rather large move coming up, so that's really going to be taking almost all my time.

I wish I could make it, I would have loved to be able to come and see everyone. Smile
Have fun without me. Tongue_out

This is most definitely a page of suckiness for this tourney. Unhappy
Jul. 04, 2009  4:24 AM
 
We have decided to reschedule the tournament for Sunday, July 19th, 2009 at 1pm.
Jul. 04, 2009  6:50 AM
 
Um, i know this is a rather ridiculous post, but um...
I've been to one bey tourney, and i was in cosplay >_>

So generally what do you wear to a bey tourney?
Jul. 04, 2009  6:51 AM
 
Casual clothes......
Jul. 04, 2009  6:58 AM
 
gah, i'm weird i know

just don't want to over/underdress

i guess i'm tired and obsessing. casual sounds good.
Jul. 04, 2009  7:10 AM
 
lol you just wear what you would wear to do anything else
Jul. 04, 2009  7:13 AM
 
Also, performance wise...
Do short sleeves yield a better shot than long sleeves?
Jeans or shorts for ease of movement when crouching to shoot?
Stuff like this. Dress for success.
I seriously gotta win this.
